At Home in Europe

In establishing Wacker Chemie Nederland B.V. – our first non-German subsidiary – in 1972, we laid the foundation for tapping European markets. Now, over 40 years later, we have no hesitation in calling Europe our home market, where we are the leader in silicon chemistry and ethylene-based polymer products – a position we intend to keep in the future.

Providing good insulation, POWERSIL® silicones prevent fl ashovers and power failures – which greatly benefi ts overhead power lines in coastal areas or in regions affected by high air pollution.
